Cannibalised from the Eternal Bargains deck, this attempts to ramp up the artefacts until it has a veritable army that can crush the opponents, gaining life with each attack thanks to Sydri's ability.

This deck uses a two-pronged approach, putting down a horde of tokens and a few large creatures to force the opponent to decide which they will block. Colossus of Akros is particularly effective, if I can get it out, as it's an indestructible blocker and powerful attacker with enough mana. Filigree Angel too is good, especially in the late-game when I've had a chance to gather my artefacts.

However, I still don't have much of a feel for it yet as I've only played a few games with it.
